How long can I stay on Prolia?

@madeleine40 , I took Fosamax followed by 5 years of Reclast during 2000-2010. Dexa stayed stable with osteopenia until 2021 when it changed drastically to severe osteoporosis. Fearing fractures I followed by rheumatologist recommendation for Prolia. At that time I had not done any research into osteoporosis treatments. Anyway, in the 2 years I was on Prolia, I had 3 unusual pathologic fractures. So, 2 months ago I started on Tymlos as my only option now. My rheumatologist said that I will need to go back to Prolia as I have exhausted the amount of time for taking Reclast. However, he is not an osteoporosis specialist so I’m currently looking for someone.

Thank you so much for your feedback ymv. Very annoying to take these drugs and still have fractures.
Research is key indeed. Good luck in your search.
